The same logic, however, apparently does not apply to left-wing influencer accounts, as Sam learned when he created a short-lived liberal counterpart for Emily on Instagram: “Democrats know that it’s AI slop, so they don’t engage as much.” (Sam’s explanation for why MAGA influencer accounts work is blunt: “The MAGA crowd is made up of dumb people—like, super dumb people. And they fall for it.”)

Pretty much sums up the whole political timeline we live in.

Damn I need to start scamming MAGAs. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to start a new career in the scamming industry?
